If anyone can help me with some php please message me. I've rebuilt a website from scratch but have been unable to sort out some functions in php. Thanks guys!

Nevermind i got it figured out!

If you want to check out the website it is at https://sourceforge.net/projects/minimal-music-site/

My code is a mess but the site works for what I need.

I suggest using another code hosting site as SourceForge got F from FSF: https://www.gnu.org/software/repo-crite ... ation.html

Well, i kind of utilized java for my site design too. :/

I put a download link to jquery in the readme.txt it goes in the admin folder. Its used to list files on the server that have been uploaded in order for the user to remove them from the site.

Javascript, right? Java is another beast that's anything but simple

I notice you're not using a database, just reading info from files. Good.

The one thing I'd do differently is to do all editing/uploading via SSH/FTP. Web based admin is complicated and not very secure. Any script that takes input from the open internet and has permission to do file/database writes is just asking for pwnage. It's getting to be a huge problem for Wordpress and Drupal sites.

Well I use ftp however the site is for some guys who dpnt know anything other than browser uploads. But I agree on security.

If you can suggest some security updates ill include them.

One word, my friend: BACKUPS

There are so many holes, in everything down to low-level image format libs, it's impossible to really make anything secure. At least you don't have to worry about SQL injection. And you're not the low hanging fruit. If you're not running Wordpress and you're not famous, you don't have to worry so much... yet.

Aww thats sad. I'm submitting an update today that changes the site name from the admin page.

As I learn more it will become more secure with updates.

I should rename it noob minimal music site.

I dont know much about php security advice would be well appreciated.

minimal swiss cheese? Haha

I added an updated version with a new function to change the website title. It is under admin>look>change site name.
